Anantara Bophut Koh Samui Resort Elevates Family Fun with Enhanced New Creative Spaces for Young VIPs and Grown-Up Retreats

Anantara Bophut Koh Samui Resort, a leading family-friendly resort in Koh Samui, unveils thoughtfully designed spaces and experiences for guests of all ages, introducing a new era of family-friendly hospitality. Set amongst sun-draped gardens and the gentle ocean breezes of Bophut Beach, the resort’s latest enhancements celebrate the vibrant spirit of Koh Samui, offering immersive journeys and authentic cultural connections for all ages seeking luxury and adventure.

The newly renovated Tree House Kids’ Club welcomes young guests with a vibrant space and meaningful and edutainment activities schedule, including arts and crafts, cooking classes, and beach adventures, all curated to spark their creativity and curiosity. The resort’s signature Samui Way of Life programme immerses the whole family in the island’s traditions through guided meditation, palm leaf fish treasure hunts, and moments of reflection at the resort’s spirit house, celebrating the harmony between people and nature.

Bigger kids have a space of their own with the newly added The Lounge Active Zone, offering them a dynamic space to relax, play, and connect. Here, they will find creative workshops that invite them to experiment with tie-dye and coconut painting, while dynamic Thai boxing and body alignment workshops challenge them both physically and mentally. Spice Spoons cooking classes and Thai language lessons provide an opportunity to explore the local culture, ensuring that each day of their stay brings new chances for self-discovery and excitement tailored to their growing independence.

While the kids enjoy their adventures at the Tree House and The Lounge, adult guests can unwind by the palm-shaded pool, stroll through Bill Bensley designed gardens, or simply relax on the pristine Bophut Beach.

The award-winning Anantara Spa, famously featured in Season 3 of ‘The White Lotus,’ offers a lush sanctuary with six standalone treatment suites surrounded by tranquil water gardens. Guests can choose from an extensive menu of Thai rituals and holistic therapies, or craft a multi-day wellness retreat during their stay at the resort. For parents who want to share their spa journey with their young ones, the Anantara Spa offers special treatments for children, including the Little Prince Massage and the Little Princess Party. The Little Prince Massage utilises chocolate and orange oil for a soothing experience, while the Little Princess Massage combines a gentle body scrub and full-body massage with deliciously scented products.

Guests wishing to maintain their fitness routines during their stay can use the resort’s new fitness centre, which is equipped with Technogym cardio and strength-training machines. Guests can also enjoy Technogym workouts, exclusively produced for Anantara, in the privacy of their room. Thai boxing and tactical defence classes are available for all ages at the brand-new boxing ring, making fitness a family affair.

Families can also explore the island and surrounding seas with curated excursions, such as The Passage of the Lotus cultural experience, which delves into Thailand’s unique blend of Theravada Buddhism and animistic beliefs. Families can enjoy a memorable half-day adventure that begins with folding lotus petals into delicate shapes, visits to revered local landmarks such as the Big Buddha and Wat Plai Laem temples, a pause for a tranquil moment at a scenic viewpoint, and unforgettable encounters with gentle giants at a local elephant sanctuary.

One of the resort’s most popular island-hopping excursions is a half-day trip to the neighbouring islands of Koh Tan and Koh Madsum, where untouched beaches, vibrant coral reefs, and friendly beach pigs await.

The resort features 106 rooms and suites with contemporary Thai design. Recommended for families are the Two-Bedroom Pool Suites, the most spacious accommodation at the resort, ideal for families seeking privacy and comfort. The space can accommodate up to six adults and features a lounge area, private outdoor terrace, and plunge pool. These suites offer easy access to the beachfront pool and restaurants, ensuring convenience and luxury for every family. Guests can also opt for the newly renovated Deluxe rooms, which overlook lush gardens or the Gulf of Thailand.
